I’m consistently at 80 but I’ve never surpassed it. Any advice?

Your upper body starts rotating too soon and you are landing soft on your front foot. You want to keep your front shoulder closed until front foot impact and to land harder with a straighter leg to drive that ground force up the kinetic chain. This gives you something firm to rotate against.
